It's Damn Real!
The undisputed, undefeated TNA &
I know most will still complain that the KO division is still less one Awesome Kong and one Gail Kim, but to them I say David v. Goliath is only fun once. It doesn't matter how many times David beats Goliath after the first time, it's no longer shocking and no longer entertaining. The Philistines would have grown bored, and Saulthe first King of Israelwould have been out of a job long ago had he continued to parade the same nonsense in response to his crowds' bloodthirst.
I'm far from the worlds biggest womens' wrestling fan, and frankly I'm hardly a fan of it at all for that matter, but even I can see the tremendous talent lined up in TNA right now. As of this moment they've got a proverbial all-star team to lay claim to, now owning Mickie James, Tara, Katie Lea (Winter), Angelina Love, Velvet Sky, Daffney, Cookie (Becky Bayless), Sarita, Madison Rayne, Taylor Wilde, Hamada and Lacey Von Erich.
Since the departures of the likes of Awesome Kong, Gail Kim, ODB and others, the Knockouts Division took a rather heavy hit having been forced by lack of organizational depth to structure the entire division around four performers who repeatedly hogged the spotlight (what choice did they have?), but times have changed, and with that change came an influx of new talent in James, Katie Lea, Tara and Cookie.
Normally four performers that low in the card wouldn't have much of an effect on the product were this the mens division we are talking about here, but considering the KO division functions on a limited roster and with limited time yet still garners TNA some of it's highest ratings, I'd think it's safe to say they've managed to finally run two engines at once the first being the performance ability the fans were used to with the likes of Kim and ODB as well as the star power it previously lacked.
So long as everything is booked well, I see only positive things happening for the ladies of TNA.
Thoughts?
